DSL---> BT Modem --> CAT6-> Techicolor 582
The Techicolor has a web interface (and a telnet interface) that would normally tell me lots of good things about the DSL ... but of course it can't
because the line does not even get to the box.
The only place which would know the DSL characteristics would be the BT modem ... can I get stats off this somehow?

The only way is indirectly via the BT speedtest where the IP profile is about 96.7% of the sync speed

At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.

Of course it's not allowed, just technically 'do-able'

Quote from: Gigabit I stil do not understand why BT lock these modems down!
Maybe so that we can't mess with them & blame BT when our messing ruins our connections.
Or..........
[cynic]
So that we can't see exactly how bad our connections really are & to stop us having the proof with which to complain?

Another useful command is xdslcmd info --stats
That provides the usual connection stats including error counts etc.
Windows users can also fully graph their connection. See the link in the first post here:-

As well as loading new firmware, you need to also connect the 2nd LAN interface to your internal network.
Using FTTC since 2011. Currently on 80/20 Unlimited Fibre Extra.
